I just started my first build and I have everything working except my GPU, the Radeon Gigabyte R9 270 with Windforce Technology. I have tried two different cards from different sources and have received the same issue with both. After connecting both power cables (with 6-pin to molex adapters, if that matters) and inserting it into a PCIEx16 slot as instructed in the manual, I turn on my computer and nothing happens. I receive no display at all, and the fans will not spin. My disk drive, fans, cpu, etc. all seem to be working properly, but the GPU does not react at all.

I've tried two cards, each of them in three different slots. I've used various combinations of the molex connectors in my PSU (although all of them come from the same source, which is powering everything else, so I have no idea why that would matter). I have done everything I can think of and am at wit's end. Before going to a business that would charge me huge money to fix this, I was hoping someone here might know the issue.

I'm using:

Asus Sabertooth FX990 R2.0
AMD FX 4350 Unlocked Quad Core Processor 4.2 4 FD4350FRHKBOX
Sentey® Bxp600-ps Pc Power Supply


Again, all other components receive power and will work as intended, but this does absolutely nothing. Please help! If you need any more information, I will answer as quickly as possible!

Updated with more build specs in response to requests!

Whats the make and model of the PSU, where it lacks the proper connections it may also lack enough power to properly power the card.
